2. I felt that my magazine represents the age range
of my target audience because...
The ages of the artists featured in Persona are of a similar age to that of my target audience; and mainly
produce music for people within their generation. I also think that people find it easier to identify with artists who
they can relate to if they have something in common with them, whether this is the genre of music, gender or
age group.
These are just a few artists who would feature in my media product…

4. The language used in my magazine isn't too formal, I think it's somewhere between informal and
formal; like semi formal. The language in my editors note is humorous to invite the audience into the
magazine, make them feel comfortable and welcome and also for them to get an idea of the
character who edits and puts all the ideas for Persona together I feel that this feature is key and
very important in the magazine. The text on the DPS is the most informal, I felt that this was
because I conducted the interview in a casual and relaxed situation so my artist 'Lauren Cato' didn't
feel obliged to speak too formally. I think that the language used is appropriate for my target
audience's social class. I didn't want to restrict my readers by making the text too formal or informal
as my media product isn't aimed at a specifically social group or age group, this is because the age
range of my target audience is so wide, I felt that semi formal language would appeal the range the
best. My magazine is targeted at people between the ages if 15-35.
In the modern society that we live in today, I don't believe that any particular genre of music is or should
be associated with any one particular ethnic Group or age. This is a really good trait as it doesn't restrict
my target audience at all and allows the reader to have the freedom to explore any genre they desire.
I think this is represented by the artists featured in the magazine, the props used in my photo
shoots, locations etc. I felt that the props and costumes used in my media product will act as inspiration
for readers, although it is a music magazine the different fashion styles used by the artists should be
useful to readers who are also interested in new trends.
